Motor Neurons Disease! Have you heard of it?
Perhaps you’ve heard of ALS or the Ice Bucket Challenge?

MND or ALS is an incurable disease that affects the nerves leaving you unable to walk, talk, eat or swallow. Unfortunately, diagnosis right now, means certain death and there is no known cure. My father-in-law died from it shortly before I married his son. The suffering is insurmountable and it was such a sad time for our family.

Last week I heard about Juliette – a remarkable 14 year old whose Grandfather was diagnosed with MND when she was just 11. I read her story – she was confused, angry, hurt BUT incredibly, at her tender age – she decided she wanted to make a difference.

Juliette started selling Lemonade to raise funds for much needed research in to this horrific disease. However, this is NOT YOUR AVERAGE Lemonade Stand! She has raised $33,000 from the sale of her bottled leMoNaiD. This incredible socialpreneur has her leMonAiD bottled at Parker’s Organic Juices and she donates every cent of profit to The Macquarie University Motor Neurone Disease Research Centre in the hope that someday a cure will be found.

Can you help?

Juliette’s aim is to raise another $33,000 – this kid and this cause is close to my heart and I was hoping that we could help her by buying a box of leMoNaiD to help her achieve her goals.

Juliette doesn’t yet have a sales website, so I’ve helped by creating a BUY NOW button on the CoziGo website. She’s selling a carton of 12 bottles for $54 including free postage Australia Wide. That’s just $4.50 per bottle – for the price of a coffee, you can help make a difference.
Remember:All profit goes directly to finding a cure for the devastating disease MND.
